I made some minor adjustments to the animation and added a few more frames. the frames include some easing frames. I decided to add these because how sudden the animation felt without out it, how it would rather just hop around without giving the watcher anytime to comprehend what is happening. I believe this made the animation a bit smoother and easier on the eyes.

I under estimated the amount of time it would take for me to do the first draft of the animation. Instead of fully completing the walk cycle instead I will only do the first part and once I have completed everything on it I will use my light box and just swap the front leg and back leg rather then drawing everything twice. I believe this will be much more time efficient then drawing the new changes I make to the the first half every time.
Today I decided that I would make the character dancing while they walk, not too exaggerated but hopefully enough to get the point across. I was not able to work on my challenge as much as I would like today but i'm at least happy to know what i'm going to be doing.
My plan is to first brainstorm ideas of the type of walk. After i have an idea what I want to do i will do a rough draft of the animation, I will take a few days to clean up the draft and fix any major and minor problems within it. I will then use a light box to draw the actual character on to my base. Once I have finished everything I may put it into my computer to color it digitally, possibly adding a background and shading.
For the 14 day challenge I will be attempting to animate a unique walk cycle (possibly multiple) over the course of 14 days.
By challenging my self to do this I believe I will learn more about animation and how to show a persons personality with movement, As well as trying to make my self more patient, and being able to work on things that can take a really long time without giving them up. I am extremely inspired to do this challenge because of people like Hayao Miyazaki, a Japanese writer and animator who is extraordinarily skilled in his craft, Of course Walt Disney, one of the most popular and well known animators, as well as two not as well known animators, yet still popular ,Vivienne Mendrano and Rebecca sugar.
